Does the bug happen if you start with --temp-basedir?:

Not able to test it there, unfortunately.

Description

I'm seeing issues with window focus here after upgrading to Fedora 35 (still in beta, with py3.10 etc.).
I have multiple qutebrowser windows open, generally about 5 in different workspaces here on Gnome Shell (one each for a project/context). When using other tools like weechat, neomutt, byobu(tmux), I use scripts like urlopen.py or urlview to open links in qutebrowser from weechat. Similarly, on the terminal, I also tend to use gio open a lot to open URLs in qute.

In the past, if I used one of these, the new URL would be opened in the last active Qutebrowser window. This is now no longer the case---it gets sent to another window (I'm not sure how this is being picked). Oddly enough, that's not the worst part. Sometimes, when I go to this window to then work in the tab, pressing keyboard keys does not do anything here. Initially I thought that the keys were not being recognised, but then I realised that the keys seem to be sent to the last active window (where this tab should've opened in the first place).

(I just closed and restarted qutebrowser (with all my windows), and even now, I'm looking at a window but my key presses are going to another. So it may not be related to opening urls from a terminal.)

I see this in the debug logs:

How to reproduce

It's hard to reproduce unfortunately. I see it most often when:

- multiple windows are open over multiple workspaces
- opening a URL from somewhere other than within qutebrowser does not open in the last recently accessed window (as it used to)
- the tab opens in another window but keypresses are sent to the most recently opened window
Here's a video that shows it (sorry, couldn't make a screen cast since I wanted to show my key-presses). You'll see that at the end, I hit d twice to close two tabs, but they're closed in the other window, not the one that I'm currently using.

I also noticed a few other traces, just pasting them here:

The current workaround is to start Qutebrowser in a terminal with the `QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb`
